Speaker Writes Hardwick That
. , "
He Didn’t Intend to Reflect on
'
Georgia Congressman.
WASHINGTON, June 6.—The fa
mous “shoo fly” of Speaker Champ
Clark, applied to Representative
Hardwick in the tolls debate, came
into prominence again to-day when
the Speaker sent Mr. Hardwick a let
ter saying he meant no personal re
flection when he used the statement.
The laelt(-r follows:
*Hon. T. W. Hardwick,
“House of Representatives.
“Dear Tom: Somebody sent me a
copy of a Georgia paper, trom which
it appears that the shot I took at you
in the tolls debate is being construed
as showing that I held you in slight
esteem personally and as a member
of the House.
“I' have no desire whatever to med
dle in Gecrgia politics and I am un
willing to be piaced in a false posi
ticn by sach a publication,
“The inference drawn from the re
mark I made is unwarranted and un
true. For years we have been per
sonal and political friends and have
stood side by side in many a fight
here. You have rendered loyal and
efficient service to the party here and
hold a high and honorable place in
the House. 1 desire at all times to be
Just and am unwiliing to be placed in
a false light in this matter by the
misconstruction of a chance expres
sion in a heated debate, and I write
you this letter to assure you that my
feelings toward you are quite the op
posite to what is indicated by this
publication. : Your friend,
“CHAMP CLARK.”

Among the dignified seniors who
have received their degree of bach
elor of arts at the graduating exer
c'~es of Brenau College and Con
servatory at Gainesville, Ga, is a
round-cheeked, bright-eyed daughter
of Japan, Aya Takeda San, of Tokio,
who, within four years, has masiered
th: English language and acquitted
herseif with distinction in the uni
versity studies required for the B. A.
degree at Brenau Shd is the first
Japanese girl who has‘been gradu
ated from a Georgia college.
Among the fair-skinned American
girls on the stage Ayva was a quaint
and picturesque little figure. Most of
her classmates wore regulation com
mencement dresses of white under
their black college robes, but Aya's
gown was a brocaded yellow satin
kimopo imported directly from the
Land of Flowers for the important
occagion. Her long black hair was
piled high above her pink cheeks, just
a 8 it is seen on all Japanese maids
on dainty fans and rare old priats;
and littie sandaled feet peeped from
under the hem of her kimono.
When Aya's name was called, she
| was greeted with enthusiastic ap
i plauge, everybody joining in the ova
tion, for she has made many warm
'(ri(*nds during her stay at Brenau.
When she first arrived in Gainesville,
she was a strange little maid. She
could speak no English and was as
shy as a rabbit, She and her 50 fine
kimonos, some of them the stite
robes that were worn by her grand
mother and her great-grandmother at
the court of the Emperor, attracted
much attention, however; and soon
she and gll the girls had become
friends over the soft silken garments,
She made remarkable progress in
her studies; and, thougn snhe has not
adopted the American style of dress,
she has n.pg:opflated many of the
custors, and declares she "just loves
them.” ; e

Charters in Lists
For Bell’s Place
~ GAINESVILLE, June 6.—Former
Solicitor General William A. Chartars,
of Hall County, to-day announced
that he will be a candidate for Con
gress against Thomas M. Bell, the
present Representative from the
Ninth District. }
1t also is stated that former Speak
er of the House John N. Holder will
not be a candidate, as was antici
pated.
Both Mr, Charters and Mr. Holder
ran against Mr, Bell two years azo,
and Bell won out by the narrow mar
gin of two convention votes.
(‘harters is one of the best cam
paigners in Georgia, and pitted alone
against Bell is expected to give a fine
aceounting of himself. He was for
eight years the Solicitor General of
this circuit, and made a wonderful
record therein. Bell has been in Con
gress eight years and is regarded a 3
one of the most Tesourceful politicians
in the State. A race between the
two men mentioned should be very
close, with no betting odds offered
either way.
